    EPISODE 108 - “HOLLYWOOD ROYALTY: GLENN FORD & ELEANOR POWELL, REMEMBERED BY SON PETER FORD” - 10/06/25 PETER FORD was born into Hollywood royalty. As the son of MGM dancing sensation ELEANOR POWELL, and rugged leading man GLENN FORD, he was born into a world stat few can imagine. He lived in a mansion in Beverly Hills with a staff of 8. He called RITA HAYWORTH “Aunt Rita,” was babysat by JAMES MASON, had his first martini (at 10!) thanks to FRITZ LANG, and often had luminaries like HENRY FONDA, BARBARA STANWYCK, and CLARK GABLE at his dining room table. Peter once wrote, “I was sent by Central Casting to play the role of the perfect Hollywood son in this idyllic world of make-believe. I was great and performed flawlessly. It was hard work but I was underpaid!” Join us as Peter offers a fascinating, honest, and informative discussion of his loving, but complicated relationship with his parents, and what it was like to grow up surrounded by icons.

If you’re interested in classic movies and the stories about those making the movies or in the movies, this is one of the best podcasts I’ve heard. Much of the information and stories told in this podcast are those that aren’t as well known, so I learn a lot from each episode.

Steve Cubine and Nan McNamara know a lot about the film industry and their rapport and interaction with each other makes it a delight to listen to them. The performance and production value is elevated by Lindsay Schnebly’s editing, writing, etc.

I anticipate and look forward to the release of each new episode and a few times I’ve even gone back and relistened to episodes. That’s how much I enjoy this podcast.

One of my favorite podcasts!
